Reconstructing that archive from the records would be close to impossible. The documents they issue and banks/notaries and others have have 30 day expires. In theory most of these documents are issued on sale / mortgages / loans against these type of assets. Both notaries and banks have their own record system - I don't think there's a common system they all use, for notaries I'm not sure if they keep electronic records of these papers .. the system that was hacked was supposed to be it.

maybe people enjoy working with it .. I love it, I went from a systems admin/customer support to being a senior react dev, I learned angular, than some javascript, than some programming and then some more and some more.

Amen ... I've started building a shed (10x10) 1.5 months ago with 0 woodworking experience.

It's the most fun I've had in a decade .. my joints are swollen, I've got bruises and scrapes on my hands and feet, skin on my hand is actually rough.

I work from home nine-to-five, software. I can't wait to finish work to actually go outside and work on the shed.

I've actually considered quitting my job and doing this full time .. but it won't pay nearly enough as I'm making in software and my financial commitments won't let me.

competition is good, it's better than piling all the money in one place.

this is exactly the reason I prefer the office .. I have 2 kids, 5 & 2, and if I'm home they are very much used to me being around them or doing something together, working from home is not ideal

The system was absolutely flawed, still is, but still good enough to encourage the highly skilled.

Our (Romania's) education system was (is) the same, if you were GOOD at something there were plenty of paths that teachers would generally push you towards, special clubs for maths, languages, art (less common). Or schools who would try to group together highly skilled students.

System (after communism) has the same flaw, most rural areas have worse access to education, or better said, much worse quality of education.

I believe the opposite when it comes to 'behavioral signs at preschool age' .. I think a child natural inclination towards 'math like' sciences is visible very early

Cheap comment ..

I see them as options, not steps, options within the same ecosystem

A lot changed, but the limitation is still the same - the delivery platform - browser (dom + js)

yeap .. having this issue as well, trying to easily find where a method is defined in JS/TS I'd so much want to be able to exclude `*.(spec|test).(js|ts|jsx|tsx)`

The problem with UI/DOM is the mental model of working with it. For me I think SPA frameworks need to provide an abstraction layer that makes it easy to work with.

Thus React. I can think of it in a functional pattern and let it abstract the DOM/UI for me, ofc I understand there's a cost to it but that cost will greatly be overshadowed development & maintenance costs.

almost 4% mortality rate in Hubei is pretty scary, I imagine a lot has to do with China not reporting real infection numbers which are rumoured to be much higher

I never felt the need to reinstall OSX .. EVER. I was doing it very often with Windows and some times with Ubuntu (haven't used it that much personally outside of work)
